I am a recently married 37 year-old mother of one awesome 6 year-old daughter. I have always struggled to keep my weight under control, sometimes with success, other times not. Since the birth of my daughter, I have been stuck at the highest weights I have ever seen. I am determined to get back to a healthy size before I am 40. I want to be able to enjoy this part of my life! I started November 1, 2012 at 244.5 lbs. That was a shock! hadn't been on the scale in a while. Over the next 2-3 months I have lost about 13 lbs. Not the pace I was hoping for, but better than the gain I usually experience at this time of year. Now that all the holidays are done, I am back "on the wagon" and more determined than ever!
